Hi Clive,

Thanks for correcting me. I just remember that lots of asset classes were down in 2008.

I looked it up and treasury bonds were up 29% and gold up 5.5%. Corporate bonds and many commodities like oil were down - that is why I probably remember many assets being down:

Your idea about investing 25% in each of the 4 asset classes and rebalancing back shows a lot of promise - it seems very effective and simple.
